Well, my ISP decided that it wanted to take the night off while I was about half done.

Completed:
  - issues.dlang.org should be functional
  - bug changes are slow due to mail sending
  - github updated to point to new site

Todo:
  - old site doesn't redirect yet
  - auto tester graphs pull from the old db
  - speed up mail sending
  - copy data dir from old site (affects some functionality)

Andrei: can you change the bounty site's config

What have I left out / forgotten?

More when my connectivity is restored.

I'm seeing massive speed improvements. Hooray :)

Interesting. So what's new in this version of bugzilla (or rather what was the old version and which is the new version?). The few things I can tell at a glance:

- All links are underlined by default (a little bit ugly, but I can
use a stylish script to override this)
- There's a new Tags field now
- The site is way faster now, yay!

Here's what I use for the Stylish[1] addon:

-----
@-moz-document url-prefix('https://issues.dlang.org'),
               url-prefix('http://issues.dlang.org')
{
    a {
        text-decoration:none;
    }
}
-----

Not sure what exactly needs to be done about it, but I noticed that Deskzilla Lite doesn't recognize issues.dlang.org as an open source installation and thus denies to add the "D" product with its >12k bugs.

Also seems like votes are disabled.

The primary changes:
  1) hardware
  2) url, into the *.dlang.org name space
  3) upgrading from 3.4 (long past it's supported lifetime) to 4.4 (current)

As to what the 3.4 to 4.4 changes entail.. I'm sure that list is long as it's years and many many versions worth of changes.  Best source for that would be to peruse the bugzilla change logs.

Fixed, that code was moved to an extension which needed to be explicitly enabled.

Excellent. Found a few pages listing the new features for each new major version number:

v3.6: http://www.bugzilla.org/releases/3.6/release-notes.html#v36_feat v4.0: http://www.bugzilla.org/releases/4.0/release-notes.html#v40_feat v4.2: http://www.bugzilla.org/releases/4.2/release-notes.html#v42_feat v4.4: http://www.bugzilla.org/releases/4.4/release-notes.html#v44_feat

One of the more interesting ones which first caught my eyes is: http://www.bugzilla.org/releases/4.0/release-notes.html#v40_feat_dup (Automatic Duplicate Detection When Filing Bugs).

I suspect this is gonna help cut down on duplicate reports.

For the Deskzilla Lite problem, it's because the new URL isn't currently on their list of open-source project's urls. I just opened an issue (https://jira.almworks.com/browse/DZO-1187) with them about it.
